Notes on EE activation, shielding and removal Dave Cockerill 4.3.2009. Normal LHC running ECAL TDR, fig 9.1 Use the ‘unity’ level as reference, after one day of cooling For long winter access, after 50 days, levels only 40-50% less. 10 yrs. Activation across ES, EE and EB in Sv/h.

Notes on EE activation, shielding and removal Dave Cockerill 4.3.2009
Normal LHC running ECAL TDR, fig 9.1 Use the ‘unity’ level as reference, after one day of cooling For long winter access, after 50 days,levels only 40-50% less 10 yrs
Activation across ES, EE and EB in Sv/h Exp.falloff ECALTDR
Fluence and dose across EE330 Sv/h at inner edge of EE = 0.33mSv/h ECAL EDR04CERN radiation manual 1996 no more than 20mSv in 12 monthsDose limit of 1mSv per week averaged over time at CERN At CERN, nobody should receive whole body dose of 5mSv/yr Inner EE, unshieldedMax time 3hrs in one weekMax time 15hrs in one year Pb, 1MeV photon, attenuationlength ~1cm5cm – attenuation factor 0.7.10-2 => 430hrs for 1mSv at inner EE5cm should be enoughLess needed at outer radii
Activation across ES, EE and EB in Sv/h Exp.falloff Need ‘forward’ Pb to protect from lines of sight to inner region around beam pipe ECALTDR
During shielding and removal Dealing with newly exposed surfaces will need careful consideration
